Requisition from Gov.Gordon for Wm.Z. Edelin—Arrest on a Bench Warrant. Detective Bedford, as agent of the state of Georgia, yesterday presented to Chief Justice Bingham « requisition of Gov. Gordon of that state for Wm. Z. Edelin, for a number of years a detective here, and charged in Georgia with the larceny of a gold watch and chain from D. W. Blue in Atlanta in April last. The chief justice issued a bench warrant under the pa- pers and Mr, Edelin was arrested lest evening by one of the marahal’s officers and spent the night in custody. Mr. Bedford has been in the city several days and he states that while the transaction may not be « criminal one else- where his state hasa law defining this trans- action as larceny after trust. Mr. Edelin states that while engaged as a Pullman car company employe he made the acquaintance of the complaining witness, Mr. Biue, on the train; that on one occasion Blue was intoxicated on the train, and he (Edelin), after refusing Blue a berth, gave him one; that Blae invited him’ to. stop off. and he (Edelin) bougbt quite a number of articles from Blue. He states that he bought the chain, valued at 29, and paid for it im Mexican silver dollars, which Blue afterward returned; that Blue al- most forced the watch apon him, and he finally (in April last) took it and signed an agreement to pay for it in installments, and that having lost his place shortly afterward he was unable to keep his engagement, Subsequently he pawned the watch, intending as soon as he got | work to redeem it and return it. He state: they have corresponded since, and only a few weeks since he wrote to Blue his intention to soon settle with him. The case will be heard this afternoon when Messrs. A. B. Williams and Campbell Carring- ton will appear for Edelin. —— THE LIST OF JURORS, They Will Report for Duty in the Crim- inal and Circuit Courts January 6.

Governor Mellette says that South Dakota will be obliged to close up some of her institu- tions. The receipts of the stute will fall short of the expenses and there is apparently no other alternative. Undoubtedlythat would be the business way of meeting the emergency. There are schools that can be closed and the state survive. In North Dakota Governor Miller says the conditions are more favorable, and while that was and is true it is not saying mush. Gov- ernor Miller in his message to the legisiature estimated the deficiency for the first year at $155,870, and cailed attention “to the impera- tive need and importance of the strictest econ- omy in all depertments of the new state.” Sub- sequent developments and figures show that the governor uuderstated the probable defi- ciency, and that the outlook is little better than bankruptey ifthe governor's advice is not followed. ———— — see —____ Didn’t Jump, but Sued. Miss Sophie Eyre, the actress who appeared at the Tabor grand theater in Denver last week and the week before, began suit yesterday against the Denver Republican for $26,500 for defamation of character. The suit was brought because of an article recently published in the Republiom in which it was claimed that Misa Eyre inteaded jumping the town without pay- ing the members of the company. The com- pany did @ poor business and are now stranded ere. eee Minister Lincoln’s Son Improving. A special cable telegram to the New York Heraid says: Abraham Lincoln, son of the American minister to England, is still an in- valid at the Hotel Vatel, in Versailles. A re- port was circulated in Paris yesterday that young Lincoln had had a relapse and that his condition was much worse. The correspondent saw Minister Lincoln's secretary yesterday, who contradicted the re- port and said that the patient's condition is moproving, but that he was still unabie to leave his room. He had sat up several times. though his abscess is not entirely healed. ‘Two yeicians are in attendance and Robert 'T. Las come from Loudon to Versailles, where be intends to remain until his son is able to be removed. Mrs. Lincoin and ber daughter are also at Versailles, Choked by a Piece uf Turkey. There was to have been a family gathering at the home of Pinckney Lowe, who is boss of the Philadelphia and Reading railroad round house in Allentown, Pa, yesterday. His wife, who was sixty-two years of age, had about com- pleted roasting a turkey and removed it from the oven. In order to see whether it was prop- erly cooked she cut off a piece of meat and ate it.

ABOUT AMERICAN WOMEN, Their Peculiarities as Studente—The | An Austrian Regards the United States Question of Race. From the New York Times. “The girl would make a better student in our Public schools and colleges,” said one of the Prominent educators of the city yesterday, “if she had the same incentive, the same motiv that the young msn has. The young man who goes to the public schools and colleges feels that he is to be a bread winner. He has this for a clear purpose in getting an education. But it is not so with tho girl With her motive is everything, and not having the motiveshe does not study to her full capacity. She looks to getting married some and have some one else provide the bread for her. Of course thie is generally speaking. We hear a good deal — prea gerd of application ess — ‘ed with man’s, but my experience 2 Eaatit a girl knows what she is after, if she bas a distinct purpose, in nine cases out of ten she will display steadfastness of aim that is quite equal to that of any boy, “Much bas been said about the capacity of the female intellect for mathematics, but I can say that the girl excelsin pure mathematica. Girls are exceeding fond of history and litera- ture and invariably stand high in those studics, The best students are Hebrews. That is, thoy carry off the honors, But this is not slwayea fair test of intellectual capacity. The scholar- ship of the student is determined quite as much by her home intlueuces, by her sur- roundings aud associations, aa by her text books or instructors, As a rule, the wealth: Hebrews avail themselves of the advantages o! the public schools and colleges for their chil- dren, while, generally speaking, children of Christian parents in similar financial circum: stances go to private institutions, This maki it particularly dificult to institute race com- parisons in the public schools, “The colored girl has great imitative powers, She does not evince ordiuaril: abigh degree of intellectuality, but in all subjects in which the imitative faculty playsa part in progress she usually does extremely well. She is especially quick at drawing, penmanship, and the like.

A MONKEY BURGLAR, He Invades Sleeping Apartments and Plunders the Neighbors’ Houses. William Whiteman of No. 220 West 15th street, New York, has caged at his house s ring-tailed monkey, who bas given the neigh- bors for blocks around no end of trouble for the past few weeks. Where the monkey came from is not known, but whoever appears to claim him will have to foot abill of damages. Not long ago a servant girl slumbering in ber room on West 16th street was awakened by a gentle tap on her cheek, She saw s hideous face peering into hers and she screamed “mur- der” and ran, When help arrived nothing was found and she was looked apon asa victim of nightmare, Soon various articles in every house in the row began to disappear aud no trace could be found by the mystified owners. Preserves were stolen from larders, clothing disappeared from wash lines, valuable flower beds were torn up, food was also stolen and finally hair brushes and toilet articles went the way of the rest. The vicinity was terror- ized and men with guns sat by windows all night trying to tind the marauder, but without avail. Oue day a lady saw a little monkey sit- ting on the feuce in her rear gare calmly ex- tracting sweets from a jar, She at once recog- nized the jar as one of several which had been taken trom ber larder. The monkey, she was then convinced, was the thiet. ‘Lhis knowledge, however, was of little utility, as the moukey kept up his ‘thefts, Que day he was seen openiug a jewel case and carrying away the diamonds, The police were notified but they could do nothing with the pest, The menagerie Deople at Ceutral park were also called upon, but they could uot catch him aud his reign con- tinued. One very cold morning a tew days ago Mr, Whiteman found him shivering ve- side his kitchen fire. He is now awaiting the appearance of his owner and the children of the house have made quite a pet of him. sealants races Bota AMERICAN GEOLOGISTS CONFER. Officers Elected and Papers Read at the Annual Meeting in New York. At the annual meeting yesterday of tho American geological society in New York Mor- ris K. Jessup made the address of welcome, which was responded to by the president of the society, Professor James Hall. After routine business the annual election for officers occurred and resulted as follows: President, James D. Dana; vice presidents, John 8. New- berry and Alexauder Winchell; secretary, John J. Stevenson; treasurer, Henry 8. Williams; executive council, J. W. Powell, George W. Dawson and Charles H, Hitchcock. Fifteen new fellows of the society were announced as having been elected, among them R, D. Lacoe of Pittston; Alfred Church Lane, assistant on geological survey of Michigan; Alexander Rich- ard Cecil Selwyn,director of the geological and natural history survey of Canada. Tho ne- crology of the past year included Professor George H. Cook of New Brunswick; David Houeyman of Halifax and C, A. Ashburner of Pittsburg. Papers commemorating therr life and services to geology were read by the secretary. The reading of papers included one by T. C. Chamberlain of Madison, Wis,, upon ‘Some additional evidences bearing on the interval between the leading glacial epochs,” He was listened to attentively by the members of the society, and W. J. Magee of the United States geological survey replied briefly. N. 8, Shaler of Harvard spoke on “The tertiary deposits of eastern Meseachuyetts,” In his paper Mr. Shaler endeavored to show that in that dis- trict there had been, since the Miocene age, a large amount of true mountain-building action and also that a part of the deposits are of gla- cial origin. Prof. G. K. Gilbert, chief of the United States Reological survey, upheld the statements of Mr. Shaler, asserting that he bad been over the same ground and had arrived at the sam@couclusions, Recess was theu tuken, after which there was & short discussion of Mr. Shaler’s paper, fol- lowed by papers on “Glacial phenomena in Canada,” by Lobert Bell of Ottawa, and “-Oro- raphic movements in the Kocky mountains,” fy: Emmons of Washington, D.C. Bedi. Merrill of New York and R. C. White of West Virginia also gave their ideas of what they thought ought to be convictions from the facie which were p tod, Dede tepals eee How a Woman Should Sit a Horse, W, A. McGibbon in New York Herald, The body should be balanced exactly in the middle of the saddle and far enough back to grasp the second pommel with the right knee comfortably, while the left one is just spanned by the third pommel or leaping horn, ‘The rider is now sitting upon that part of the animat which is the center of motion; the head erect, turning easily without involvin the body; eyes looking over the horse’s hea in the direction he is going; shoulders well thrown back so as to expand the chest, taking care to keep them in and not to raise one higher than the other; the small of the back slightly bent forward, apper part of the arms hanging straight down from the ders and held loosely, but close to the sides; the fore- arm straight out from the elbows; wrists rounded inward and on a level with the el- bows; each hand holding a rein, fingers closed, kuuckles to the front, thumbs extended ou the ends ofthe reins and pointed across the body; hands held five or six inches according to the width of the in front of the body, From the knee to the foot the right leg must be heid close to the forelap of the saddi heel raised and inclined backward 8 little, right side of the upper part of the right from the knee to bi 2 eerwirenaee be turn on its outer side and he! and the inside of the u; should be in contact wit knee shonld be ed and the i le, the The Tad | i i 3 3 gS ee iH u were —— Fi i ie Hi a fight as the Eldorado of Womankind. In North America, says « writer in the Freie Presse of Vienna, woman stands in many ways above man. North America, especially the United States, is the Eldorado of womankind. No occupation is closed to the American woman. To be sure, I have nover seen female choppers of wood, nor female blacksmiths nor female congressmen, nor female aldermen, The last two diversions are forbidden women by law. Butif women never fell trees in the Primeval forest, nor tame horses, nor perform other heavy work, it is simply because they don’t wish to do it, not because they can't, Owing to the fact that American girls pass more years at school and college, on aver- age, 2 American boys, the American women are gencrally much better educated American men, The American woman is the standard bearer of American culture and the Patroness of the arts and sciences and higher education, The high culture and education of the American woman explains completely the consideration and respect with which she is treated by American men.” * © © The American husband treats his wife with the Greatest consideration, which unfortunately cannot be said of the German busband. An American man who bad long lived in Ger- many said to m You German men look out for yourselve: it. second and third, and then for your wives." That is pretty true and is no doubt responsible for the fact that our mar- riages are not so happy a8 the marriages in America, According to my experience the happiest marriages are those between Ameri- can men and German women, There the hus- band is surrounded by the devotion and un- seifishness of the German wife, who best un- derstands how to make a marriage true and happy, and the wife gets a husband who treats her with respect and devotion, The American woman is generally beautifal, or at least understands how to make herself look so, I have notseen such beautiful women anywhere else—old women, too, with maguifi- cent white bair, The American girl knows how to dress herself tastefully and stylishly, She knows how to make the simplest garment “fetching” by means of a little bow or fold or flower. All the homage which ix paid the American woman in private and public life has, however, its very shady side, To give EB your seat to a woman in a horse car is now an then a trifle uncomfortable. To wait to have your baggage checked till a woman who ar- rived after you had been attended to isin the highest degree burdensome, To be delayed at a hotel table while women who came late to dinner are being served, is almost unbearable, There are also many other occasions on which the man must step aside for the woman in America, Custom demands it, and custom in America is mightier than law, HOW TO BUY A HORSE. You Needn’t Know Anything, Just Pre- tend to Know. From the Pall Mall Gszerte. A friend of mine, who isa greenhorn in the matter of horse flesh, was anxious to purchase a horse, but was much afraid of being taken in. He tried to persuade an acquaintance experi- enced in such matters to accompany him to in- spect an animal that was op sale at a hors dealer's establishment, ‘There's no occasion,” said the latter, “for me to accompany you, All you have to do is to seem knowing. When you get to the place put your handsin your pockets and your stick under your arm, and in an off- hand manner say: ‘Groom, run him down, Now, then, pull him up and let him walk;’ then, ina knowing but doubtful tone: ‘Open his mouth. What did you say his age was? I think he’s a little long in the tooth. Seven years did you say he was? I should call him ten or eleven yeurs old. Oh, he’s a very cobby little but I think you're asking out of the way.’” My friend found the above an excel- lent formula. —__—__—+ee______ Ladies on a Tear. From the New York Times. Persons who are in the habit of being upon the Broadway promenade cannot fail to have noticed the great number of Persian lamb skin capes worn by fashionably dressed women, nor can they have failed to notice that a very large proportion of them have tears in them, the three-cornered pieces hanging down and dis- closing the skin of the fur. The number of coincidences of this sort have frequently caused comment, but it was only the other day that a Tones reporter overheard an expianatory con- Versation regarding this fashionable tear in one of the big dry goods stores, A lady wearing one of these torn capes was accosted by another, who suid: “I beg your pardou, madame, your cape is torn and should it catch in a projection result would be ruin to your wrap,’ “Oh, that is nothing,” was the response, did that on purpose.” “May Lingu.re why?” “Certainly, You see there are so many imi- tations of this skin now that no one can tell the difference at a glance until the skin of the cape is disclosed, So you see, I tore it!" That is why it is the proper thing to wear a ragged shoulder cape. ‘see —____ Fifty Years in Prison. There will be released on Monday next from the Indians penitentiary, at Jeffersonville, a convict who has probably served a longer time in prison than any man now living. His name is John Hicks. He was born in Montgomery county, Vu., in 1806, and moved to Leesburg, Ind., when a young man. He has six times beeu sentenced to the penitentiary in Indiana— twice for attempted ee three times for grand Jarceny aud once for housebreaking. He has spent in ail forty years within that state's prison walls, In addition to this record in Indiana he has served two terms in the Ohio penitentiary aud is believed to have served time in other states. In round numbers he may be said to have spent hulf a century in prisou. When his term cxpires next Monday he will goto Indian- apolia, where the state board of charities have promised to provide for him and secure an hon- est livelihood for the worn-out old telon, “y eee In the Turnip Patch. From the New York Sun, “Come outen that turnip patch!" yelled a farmer to a tramp who was helping himself with aggravating coolness, “Come down an’ put me out, you stingy old skindint,” called back the tramp. The farmer moved down toward the turnip teh, Pecome right in,” yelled the tramp as the farmer approached’ the fence; “come right in and take a full with me, I've got the nicest case of smallpox right bere under these old duds you ever luid your eyes on. Lhoard that turnips was good for it an’ thought I wonld try som: But don’t mind the smallpox. I'm feelin’ tolerable gay yet an’ I think I can make it lively for you. I'm asick man, but I never dodge or shirk. Come right in, Old Huckle- erry.” “In that case,” said the farmer, “I guess the dog will do, He don't mind the smallpox. But if you don’t want him to catch a case of it aud chaw it up you'll git right lively.” ‘This was » development in the situation that the tramp had not considered, but he was nim- ble and got through the clearing and up a tree before the dog arrived, == oo Wouldn’t Have to Build the Fire.
